Hello Okoroemeka, you are doing a great job here. Keep it up. I will like to know if you have had issues with leafhoppers and whiteflies before. And how did you control them. So far in my pepper farm, I have used imidacloprid, dimetheoat, methomyl to reduce leafhoppers numbers (no whiteflies yet) but i am still worried about the few leafhoppers I see because they can transmit virus to plants. So please recommend better pesticides I can use. Thanks. |

FarmTech:my brother I think whiteflies are the most stubborn insects to eradicate,I have seen a whole farm wiped out by excessive chemicals sprayed for whiteflies,if you have used dimethon I guessed you have used magicforce and action 40 ,if the fly still persists look for an acephate based insecticide like acetaforce and use,but if the flies are not there yet I think a weekly spray of action 40 will be a good preventive measure,some areas are prone to heavy whitefly infestation. 1 Like 1 Share |

okoroemeka:in my pepper pilot I planted okro as a companion crop. What I discovered was that immediately the okro started coming out the pest divert from the pepper to the okro. So I think a good way to handle pest in pepper farm is to plant okro as a trap crop 2 Likes 1 Share |

Olaleyeabdullah:. Planting trap crops around the border work for tomatoes in one research paper i came across. Another possible trap crop is cucumber, they love it more than okra. I will also try this in addition to pesticides. |

EMMAACHILE: Boss are you sure or typo? Thou, I ve not read the direction on the label b4. But 150ml no be small thing o, that vol can go for 4 or more loads of knapsack sprayer if it's other pesticides. I think is not as pungent as ddvp, cypemethrin and the rest anyway. |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by Nobody: 4:46pm On Oct 17, 2019 |
OluchiDelly:Error please. Ignore that dosage. 150ml was used twice with a 16 litre sprayer. That's what I used on a bitter leaf farm. It worked well. The dosage was 75ml per 16 litre but I used it twice. |

OluchiDelly:the pungency levels of action 40 is on another level,it has a sewer,rotten eggs and hydrogen sulphide combination smell,I strongly suspect that the smell alone chases lizard and rats away,very terrible smell. |

hello @okoroemeka. I commend you for all your efforts and most importantly for sharing them with us. Please can we you help update us on the okra farm and also provide answers to the following questions. 1. How many baskets have you harvested and at how many days 2. With the harvest rate you've achieved how many baskets would you say one can harvest every 3,4 or 5 days 3. what is the production comparison between the various varieties that you planted. Any other information that you can provide. God bless your hussles |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by Biki2010: 7:32pm On Oct 21, 2019 |
Organophosphates like Action 40 are old-school insecticides and are typically more harmful to humans. Actara, which is readily available is a better & safer option for dealing with whiteflies. |

The elusive ₦500,000 from one plot of land challenge project is coming closer,we are getting ready to touch the holy figure of 100bags of cucumber from one plot of land,many E-analysts are mocking us that it is impossible, well we shall see,the land had been cleared and ridged,10tons of manure had been dumped on site,drip irrigation kits with dual emitters of 8ltr/hr has been sourced and ready,we are only waiting for 1st November to plant so we can target the boom Xmas period 1 Like 1 Share |

okoroemeka: God bless you for taking to correction. 200 bags can be achieved with these simple corrections. Actually, someone woke me with your comment asking me if the amount of manure you are using will not kill the plants. Of course not. This is the way to go. The only precaution is getting rid of weed with the quantity of manure you are using. If mulch is used, that will be really optimum production. Now, get the job done and show your followers that chemical is not the solution. You have the capability. You are a leader, lead them to their Canaan land. And seriously, it is possible to make such yield in rainy season. It is even cheaper in the period. I have promised myself that the day you change, and you want to do it right, I will encourage you. I am not in the same market with you. Go and make 200 bags on 1 plot. It is very possible if you can make around 10 harvests which is very possible. Maybe not this first time, but if you can add crop rotation and mixed cropping system, the sky is the limit. You just see yourself not using chemicals again. And yield will be super high. The secret I repeat is not using chemicals but doing necessary things. Finally, learn pruning very well. It is an invaluable tool especially for huge cucumber cultivar like Cu999. Goodluck! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Thank you my dear pistols,you are definitely right and we will need that good luck,the quantity of manure we are using is not for one plot only, it will be for the land size that 1000m drip will cover but we will mark out one plot for our exclusive test,the manure was mixed pig and chicken manure at a ratio of 60/40,this coming dry season is when it is very feasible to sell cucumbers at very high price,and hopefully if the weather cooperates the issue of foliar diseases will reduce and with it the use of Chinese chemicals,the opportunity is now and we are taking it. 1 Like |

okoroemeka: The standard is 10 tons for 1 acre....like a general rule. But when I have access to 100 tons I can bombard it on half plot of land and work it in the soil. Then, put microbes there and cover with mulch. For good 3 months, I do not need to add nutrients. I may just spray. I apply nutrients to the soil only when I start seeing deficiencies. Anyone should try it and return to say he has issues with diseases. Come call me a liar here. At least the first production will be excellently ok. This is what I have tested over time. Why do people think I am moving into poultry? When the ROI is low? I am moving in to be able to produce my kind of manure. I want the poo to be with super high nutrients for my plants. And I am not using wood shaving or any wood toxicity inside the manure. Reduction of inorganic is the way I am going about it. This is the way forward. I have started researching plants which act as pesticides for all the crops I am doing. So that I can scatter them all over my farm. So why should I use pesticides again? We really need to ditch chemicals. It is not good for farmers and also not good for consumers. Someone who is smart has taking another idea in this. It definitely will take time, but it is achievable. In summary, 10 tons for even 6 plots is ok. And little fertilizer will assist. Then, using drip will so much help out. Keeping weed out of the farm is the main issue. If you can try to just test 4 tons on a plot to repair the land, and add Most Ca + Phosphorus into your soil before seeds. Also can add Mg,....ha! You will see miracle. No need for all those market gimmick chemicals and Haifa bonuses been spread around. Some of them are good, but not all. Then, add fertigation to your system and drop nutrients on daily basis. Return and testify to the goodness of God. But take care so the plants at the far ends of the drip, and those far away from the fertilizer source get nutrients if not using tank to mix fertilizer.. |
